[Map] Operation Mountain Cleansing (4km) [WIP]

[otomotopia]

Well, its my second day here. Time to... Make a map?

I've had this Map idea floating around for a while after having the privlige of visiting the beatuiful country of Costa Rica. Around half of the bends in the road, I could totally picture Admiral Ackbar shouting "Its a trap!" That country is prime for ambushs. Costa Rica would make Vietnam look like a cakewalk.

My idea is making a mountainus, forested, slightly urbanized map.

Now, why choose costa rica as my subject?
Because this is every road in Costa Rica.

What's past the bend? Another one? Or an AT round?

Now, the terrain is actually like this in populated towns. Add some shanties and dirt switchback roads and you've got the average community.


Yes, it's sniper's heaven.

Some ideas I'm considering:

Strategic objectives for AAS would be
-.25km X .5km shanty town
-a police station
-a major interesection
-a small airstrip
EDIT: a separate .25km X .25km town
-the two starting areas.

Several hills would be significantly important as they would contain buildings with prime views of the terrain and include essential kits in them.

Gameplay on this map should focus on finding the enemy, manuevering to establish favorable combat situations, ambushes, and communication. Infantry leads the way on this map.

I'm in the conceptual phase for this map. Suggestions? thoughts?

-a seperate 2.5km X 2.5km town

SAY WHAAAAT?

That is one hell of a big town - I think you should possibly focus more on the hills and forests, as it would be a great environment for combat if you are basing it off Costa Rica.

Costa Rica aye...... What factions do you intend to use? I'd say Private Security contractors vs Insurgents (of some kind). PM me about it

Your proposed town would be the largest ever created in PR. Not to mention it would take up 75% of your map, and it would take a long, long long time to create a quality city. Nonetheless if you have the confidence to do it then it will turn out to be quite an interesting urban map if you create it properly. Have you thought of the type of factions that would fight in this area, or what placeholder factions you would use?

[General_J0k3r]

start with something easy i would suggest. don't get on to making the biggest city ever in PR

other than that this might well be very cool

Its not that big, he did says .25 and .5km but someone chose to quote it without the points.

I meant .25x.25. My apologies.

I'm thinking more PMC's vs militia with or without Chechen rebel load out. The 'backstory' would be Costa Rica is being invaded via a raid by the Cartels, and the military is responding.

The Costa Rica Military is more of a police force, so the faction is apt. As for the militia faction, I think its a great choice to simulate Cartel soldiers. A slightly more realistic equipment load out for the Cartel would be that of the Chechen faction, but then again, a Cartel soldier's equipment varies from country to country, faction to faction.

If you can pull it off, it would be awesome!
Lot of work though..
